Dirty oil

Today I drained my oil on level ground but I couldn't get the filter off so I put the truck on jack stands to reach it better. I let the oil drain completely out -I think!. When the filter came out it seemed half full. I put the new filter on and lowered it off the stands. It only took 4 qts oil. Is this because I haven't fired it up yet to fill the filter?. Also when I pull the dipstick it's filthy!. My oil only had about 1000 miles at the most. What would cause it to be black like that?
